I really want to like this new Tiger but something is holding me back. I look forward to your review/comparison to the other offerings in this category. It must be the extra weight. Only a truly literal unbiased review will put my concerns to rest.

It'll be interesting to evaluate the five different ways of achieving a similar goal. But if you want to get really gnarly off-road, it'll be tough to beat that KTM...

Will probably replace the FZ1 with one of these down the road. Looks like the perfect Colorado bike. We have lots of graded dirt roads. No way I am taking any big ADV bike down anything more rugged than that.

The big triples are such wonderful engines - sound and power wise. No doubt this one is no different.

The local Ducati/Triumph dealer had two of these on the sales floor Saturday. They have them on a rear wheel stand so you can sit on them in a normal riding position. I found the ergonomics to be just about perfect with the seat in the high position. And the bike looks very "finished;" I didn't see a single wire, hose, etc. that looked out of place. But the tank and body of the bike seemed gigantic from the rider's seat; I guess you'd get used to it, but it sure looked weird to me. I didn't notice the windscreen is non-adjustable! That's just dumb for a bike of this type and price. Madstad will fix that I'm sure.

So a big ADV bike comparo is in the offing? Sounds like y'all are going to have some great fun with that. I'm looking forward to reading the results.
